It’s elegantly expressed on the nose showing lemon peel, crunchy apple, flint and oatmeal nuances, leading to a finely focused palate that’s juicy and linear. It’s firmly structured by bright acidity, finishing long and mouth-watering. At its best: now to 2026.

Fresh, tangy sauvignon blanc with gooseberry, lemongrass, green capsicum and a subtle tropical fruit influence. Crisp, refreshing wine, perfect for summer sipping.

A potent, fruit and soft dried herb centric bouquet with aromas of lemon and grapefruit, apple and golden kiwifruit, dried sage and basil leaves with a grassy gooseberry lift. Youthful, taut, crisp and dry with fruit and herb flavours that reflect the bouquet, contrasting acid line, fresh quince and citrus peel. A lovely example with decent length and lovely mouthfeel.

The 2021 vintage (4*) was partly estate -grown. Bright, light lemon/green, it is aromatic, fresh and mouthfilling, with peach, lime, passionfruit and capsicum flavours, crisp, dry and strong.
